  • From Dog Park to Cat Mom: A Heartwarming Journey with IAMS
Flavor Name: Chicken Size: 3.5 Pound (Pack of 1)
IAMS PROACTIVE HEALTH Healthy Kitten Dry Cat Food is a fantastic choice for your kitten! I ended up becoming the mom of a little cat fur baby when my 3-pound Pom-Chi dragged home a half-dead abandoned runt of a kitten one day that she found at the dog park. It was a beautiful Florida afternoon, and as is common, the afternoon brought thunder and intense rain showers. I was caught in a sudden downpour, and when I looked down, I saw my sweet dog holding what appeared to be a nearly dead, abandoned kitten. She had almost no hair, and her eyes weren’t even open. My dog, with huge pleading eyes, seemed to ask, "Please mom? Can I keep it?" I brought the kitten home; pretty sure it was not going to survive but knowing I had to give it a shot. Fast forward 5 months, and now she’s a 1.4-pound beautiful kitten who thinks she’s a pup, raised by my loving Pomeranian Chihuahua. Despite being a cat, she’s been brought up beautifully to be a proper, sweet little dog...she even barks! It's hilarious! Adding to her confusion, I am sure it doesn't help that we never have properly named her. Uncertain if she would live, or if she were truly a girl, along with HER uncertainty of how she identifies (cat or dog?) we tend to call her "Lil'bit" ...'cause she is a lil'bit...of something. A 'lil'bit of a monster, a lil'bit of a cutie, a lil'bit of a silly, a lil'bit of a cat, a lil'bit of a dog....you get the idea. Despite her vocabulary, she is feline, so it is essential she receive a proper diet and IAMS PROACTIVE HEALTH Healthy Kitten Dry Cat Food has been a great help in nurturing her growth and health. Here are some benefits and tips I’ve found helpful: 1. Portion Control: Measure her food according to the guidelines on the bag based on her size and age. This ensures she gets the right amount of nutrients. 2. Scheduled Feeding: Instead of free-feeding, provide meals at specific times each day. This has helped regulate her intake and prevent overeating. 3. Puzzle Feeders: Use puzzle feeders to make her work for her food. These toys slow down her eating and keep her mentally stimulated. 4. Digestive Health: The inclusion of prebiotics and beet pulp promotes healthy digestion, ensuring she absorbs the nutrients effectively and maintains a happy tummy. 5. Teeth Health: The crunchy kibble helps keep her teeth clean and reduces plaque buildup, contributing to better oral health. 6. Monitor Her Weight: Keep track of her weight and consult the vet if there are significant changes. Cost: While not the most expensive option, IAMS PROACTIVE HEALTH Healthy Kitten Dry Cat Food is reasonably priced for the quality it offers. Considering the high-quality ingredients and health benefits, it’s a great investment in your kitten's well-being! Overall, it's fantastic that my kitten enjoys this food! It’s a great sign that it's good for her. I highly recommend IAMS PROACTIVE HEALTH Healthy Kitten Dry Cat Food for anyone looking for a nutritious and well-balanced option for their growing feline friend. ... show more

  • Amazon is the best!
Flavor Name: Chicken Size: 7 Pound (Pack of 1)
Since adopting Tinker, I have fed him canned Wellness. I did give him an option with dried Science Diet Kittie He has thrived on it but now wants no part of canned only crunchy food. After those big permanent teeth arrived he seems to like the crunch. I read that veterinarians chose Iams over the others. Amazon just delivered the package and I set it on the floor without opening the box. I could hear the box rattle and knew he liked the smell. I better get a bowl out and feed the connoisseur of kitty food. The price was less than other and the fresh smell got to him. I put a bowl of Science Diet out and filled the other with Iams. It smells so fresh and good until 009-0102026. He likes the crunchy and it is easy to use. Whatever Tinker wants - Tinker gets. The functionality of this product is awesome! I will be purchasing more large dry food containers. Amazon has them with a suction seal that work great! Highly recommended! ... show more

  • I finally found the best cat food for low odor poop!
Flavor Name: Chicken Size: 7 Pound (Pack of 1)
I finally found the best cat food for low odor poop! I had been buying expensive brands that helped with the odor but it got too costly. Even with cleaning up 2-3 times a day, rhe smell was bad. The pet shop clerk said to buy only the chicken flavor options because fish flavors tend to create more stinky poop. And l am so happy l found a less expensive solution. It still smells a bit when they poop but no where near as awful as it used to smell! Very happy to ahare my indoor space with kitties now! ... show more

  • GREAT
Flavor Name: Chicken Size: 16 Pound (Pack of 1)
I’ve always had cats and I got a dog a couple of years ago for the first time ever. I’ve done a lot of reading trying to find something good for them. That is yummy and they will eat. IAMs hits the mark. my boy would not eat canned food name brand didn’t matter so I have been cooking for him pretty much from day one and it gets tiring. He is almost 13 and he had lived a life of hell so I will do anything I can for him he deserves it. I don’t know what made me try this brand but oh my goodness he gobbled it down. I bought the same item in the same flavor and he ate two small bowls. Now I have spared no expense But just like canned food, he would not eat. I like the size of it because although he is large, someone tore all his teeth out pretty much he likes the pate, probably for the same reason. When you look at the food in the, can, you know what you’re looking at? it looks like people food, especially the beef. It looks like beef stew same with the chicken and it’s slow roasted. I can’t tell you how thrilled I am recently. I switched over for my Cats and I am seeing such a difference in their coats already. Also in their litter boxes. I give them the dry they get a little bit of wet food. I don’t like it. I also add probiotics but some of this has it in it already so read the label. Cats started out as a colony that came with the home. I have the most gorgeous boys and girls and a big part of it going forward is this food they may not have started off with a fair shake, but I think I’m starting to show them just how special they are. My vet was happy when I told him what I was choosing. PS my dog had gastric issues constantly and was always getting sick with foam, which would only make him not eat even more. When he is empty, that’s how he gets sick. We don’t get that anymore. You would never guess his age. He recently became paralyzed from the waist down, a few months ago I wish you could see what he is doing for himself. He refuses to be disabled. He can stand on his back legs Scratch himself with his back leg and even get up on the couch most of the time. You probably realize dogs need their back legs. In the beginning, we would use the back porch to go in and out because there’s one step I would have to lift him. Now he does a bunny hop on all force we use the front five steps sometimes he runs and his funny way. I am so proud of him. He would duck out of my way so I couldn’t see him even though he was on his retractable leash I saw was him getting up and down like a ballerina practicing. I’m not the one that got him to where he is now, he did it all by himself. I am disabled and now I am ashamed to complain after watching him I added some pictures to show you what the food does besides their natural beauty lol I just like to show my babies off. What can I say but they all deserve the best. ... show more
